What is recorded here

Ballyduffy Castle is a roofless medieval tower house in County Mayo, built in the fifteenth or sixteenth century for families who needed defensible rooms rather than grand display. Its thick tapering walls, narrow openings and lost wooden floors reveal a home shaped by suspicion, storm and daily survival. It may have belonged to the Burke family, and it still stands in farmland near Downpatrick Head, waiting to be noticed instead of performed for tourists.
